Dr. i-Coach® THE SEATBELT FOR YOUR EYES

ABOUT

How Does Dr.i-Coach Work?

Dr. i-Coach® is a patented sensor and software package that sits on top of a laptop/monitor and monitors the users blink rate, sitting height, screen distance, screen time and ambient lighting. The product will alert the user if they are in violation of any of the above-mentioned factors and will coach them on developing and maintaining proper sitting and screen use habits.

Blink Rates

We should blink 12 to 18 times per minute. When we stare at pixelated screens, our blink rate can drop to as low as 2.5 times per minute, which leads to dry eye symptoms.

Screen Distance & Sitting Height

The closer we are to the screen, the more straining our eyes will experience. And if we sit too high or too low, it can potentially cause cervical spine issues.

Computer Breaks

Taking recommended, intermittent breaks and at least following the 20/20/20 rule can help relieve eye strain. And if we can do some stretching exercises during those breaks, we should feel more refreshed at the end of your work day.

Environmental Light

Too much glare can cause additional eye strain but if the room is too dark, our pupils will dilate, which could potentially allow more high energy blue light from the LED screen penetrating all the way to our retina.

Dr. i-Coach® is ideal for people who spend more than 2 hours a day in front of a computer monitor or screen — Dr Roger Wu, Optometrist and Founder

Focusing On What Matters Most

As the digital age grows at a fast pace, an increasing number of employees are using computers at work, and Digital Eye Strain is becoming a major public health issue.

The American Optometric Association reports that 10 million eye exams are performed annually in the United States due to vision problems related to computer use. Digital eye strain leads to fatigue, dry eyes, and headaches, which causes decreased productivity, mistakes, and even workers’ compensation claims. Mitigating these negative effects is crucial in employee performance and efficiency.
